Process for making a chocolate food product

ABSTRACT

A chocolate food product that is low in fat, dairy free, soy and lecithin free, free of added sugar or ingredients that increase sugar content, starch-free, Isomaltooligosaccharide-free, oligosaccharide-free, maltitol-free, sorbitol-free, xylitol-free, erythritol-free, and isomalt-free. The chocolate food product may comprise: a cocoa butter, an unsweetened cocoa powder, a glycerin, a coconut cream, an almond milk, a pectin, a salt, a monk fruit blend, and a coconut flour.

FIELD OF USE

This present disclosure relates generally to methods and processes for making chocolate food products. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to methods and processes for making low fat, sugar-free, starch-free, Isomaltooligosaccharide-free, oligosaccharide-free, maltitol-free, sorbitol-free, xylitol-free, erythritol-free, and isomalt-free chocolate food products that have high melting points.

BACKGROUND

Currently, commercially available chocolates and chocolate food products generally have a high sugar and fat content and very low melting points. Although the cocoa in chocolate has numerous health benefits, consumption of cocoa is problematic to many individuals, especially those suffering from diabetes (or pre-diabetics and other sugar and starch sensitive individuals), due to the sugars, fats, and starches present in most chocolate food products.

All chocolates are not created equal. While it is recommended that diabetics consume less chocolate that is high in simple sugars, diabetics may consume dark chocolate due to the high percentage weight of cocoa in dark chocolate. Conversely, chocolates such as white chocolate containing no cocoa which are higher in calories and saturated fat are not generally recommended to diabetics. In addition, consuming foods with both high sugar/starch and high fat content can be particularly deleterious to insulin/sugar sensitive persons, such as diabetics.

Despite the added benefits of cocoa and dark chocolate, most commercially available chocolate still remains high in sugar and fats. Although sugar substitutes have recently been used in some chocolate food products, these products typically contain additives such as starches, Isomaltooligosaccharides, oligosaccharides, maltitol, sorbitol, xylitol, erythritol, and/or isomalts. These additives are used to provide texture, sweetness, mouth-feel, and/or stability, but are undesirable and are sometimes even worse than the sugar and other ingredients that they replace, because of their impact on insulin levels over time and their impact on digestion (including increase gastroesophageal reflux disease, constipation, diarrhea, and other impacts).

Therefore, what is needed is a new and improved process for making a chocolate food product that is lower in fat, contains no added sugar, and uses additives and employees processes that are beneficial to those who are insulin resistant (e.g., diabetics), gluten sensitive, sugar sensitive, and may have digestive sensitivities. One of the food products is preferably, a chocolate cake product that has no starches, but still provides a cake-like texture with low amounts of carbohydrates.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIVE EMBODIMENTS

In the following detailed description numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of various aspects of one or more embodiments. However, the one or more embodiments may be practiced without some or all of these specific details. In other instances, well-known methods, procedures, and/or components have not been described in detail so as not to unnecessarily obscure aspects of the embodiments.

While multiple embodiments are disclosed, still other embodiments of the present disclosure will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description. As will be realized, the embodiments are capable of modifications in various obvious aspects, all without departing from the spirit and scope of protection. Also, the reference or non-reference to a particular embodiment shall not be interpreted to limit the scope of protection.

DEFINITIONS

In the following description, certain terminology is used to describe certain features of one or more embodiments. For example, the term “cocoa butter” refers to vegetable fat extracted from the cocoa bean, which is generally used to make chocolate.

As used herein, the term “cocoa powder” refers to powder derived from cocoa beans that grow in pods on the cacao tree. The cocoa beans are generally fermented, dried, roasted and cracked. The nibs are generally grounded to extract about 75% of the cocoa butter, leaving a dark brown paste called chocolate liquor. After drying again, the mass is preferably ground into powder (unsweetened cocoa).

As used herein, the terms “glycerol”, “glycerin”, and “glycerine” refer to a neutral, sweet-tasting, colorless, thick liquid which freezes to a gummy paste and which generally has a high boiling point. Glycerin may be dissolved into water or alcohol, but generally not oils.

As used herein, the term “coconut cream” refers to an ingredient in cooking, having a mild non-sweet taste, similar to coconut milk but contains less water. The difference is mainly consistency, wherein the coconut cream generally has a thicker, more viscous consistency, whereas coconut milk is generally less viscous and thinner.

As used herein, the term “almond milk” refers to a beverage made from ground almonds, sometimes used as a substitute for dairy milk.

As used herein, the term “pectin” refers to a structural heteropolysaccharide or fiber found in fruits. Pectin is generally a gelling or thickening agent. Pectin may be used for high cholesterol, high triglycerides, and may be used for diabetes and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Calcium is often used to activate the pectin and cause it to thicken.

As used herein, the term “salt” refers to a crystalline compound NaCl that usually consists of sodium chloride. Salt is generally abundant in nature, and may be used especially to season or preserve food.

As used herein, the terms “monk fruit” or “monk fruit blend” refer to any ingredient that is grown on a vine known as siraitia grosvenorii and may be used a sweetener. Monk fruit extract may be combined with monk fruit fiber to form monk fruit blend.

As used herein, the term “coconut flour” refers to an alternative ingredient to wheat and other grain flours and is usually grounded from dried, defatted coconut meat. Preferably, coconut flour is high in fiber and low in digestible carbohydrates.

As used herein, the terms “approximately” and “about” generally refer to a deviance of within 5% of the indicated number or range of numbers. In one embodiment, the term “approximately” and “about”, refer to a deviance of between 1-10% from the indicated number or range of numbers.

One embodiment is a high temperature chocolate food product that is low in fat, dairy free, soy and lecithin free, free of added sugar or ingredients that increase sugar content, starch-free, Isomaltooligosaccharide-free, oligosaccharide-free, maltitol-free, sorbitol-free, xylitol-free, erythritol-free, and isomalt-free. The melting point may be greater than 120° F. The chocolate product may have a high monk fruit fiber content. The chocolate product preferably combines cocoa and monk fruit with minimized or even eliminated bitterness or off taste.

The low fat, sugar(s) free chocolate food product is generally not only stable at room temperatures, but is also stable in an oven, such as a toaster oven, for at least five minutes, without running, melting, or burning. One embodiment of the chocolate food product may use a sweetening system that includes monk fruit, monk fruit fiber, and glycerin. The chocolate food product may be used as a glaze, icing, fudge, truffle, or the like. The chocolate food product is preferably dairy free, lecithin free, and gluten free.
